ShortRound

I am 42 years old, married, two children. My daughter is 23 and has a baby girl of her own now, Emily, who is 2. My son is 15. I live in Branson, Missouri. I am the manager of the Eatery Express restaurant for our Kmart here. So, I am employed by Sears Holdings. No, I do not eat the food there! It is all either deep fried or full of fat. I am 5 feet 0 inches tall, so being as overweight as I was and as unhealthy as I was is the reason for joining Fat Secret. A 7-day hospital stay with Acute Pancreatitis was my wake up call. I am no longer malnourished and feel better than I have felt most of my life. I have changed the way I eat drastically and am reaping the rewards in weight loss and improved health. When I found Fat Secret, I had already lost weight, but since I wasn't recording my weight or weighing on a regular basis, I don't know where I really started. It was likely around 180 or 185. I just know I have gone from size 18 to size 10 in a relatively short amount of time because of my illness, and now I am maintaining this way of eating simply for the health benefits, it suits me. I have always struggled with my weight and ended up with anorexia for some time. Getting pregnant with my son when I did is truly what saved my life. I used to see food as the enemy. Now I don't!
